Slamming Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi and Modi, Mayawati said, "Congress is contesting elections on the support of its yuvraj (Rahul) without announcing his name as PM candidate. On the other side, BJP has named a person (Modi) its prime ministerial candidate whose government is always questioned for Godhra riots."

Attacking SP, she alleged that the rule of law has vanished from UP ever since SP came to power and said murder, theft, dacoity, rape and riots have become the order of the day. She said that riots in Muzaffarnagar and Shamli have affected Muslim community most.
